This report was created to track the sea surface temperature regimes for marine regions of interest to the Gulf of Maine Research Institute. The default region being a central snapshot of the Gulf of Maine.
Satellite sea surface temperature data used was obtained from the National Center for Environmental Information (NCEI). With all maps and figures displaying NOAA’s Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature Data.
The spatial extent for Gulf Of Maine is displayed below. This bounding box is the same bounding box coordinates used to clip the OISST data when constructing the time series data from the array.

Area-specific time series are the most basic building block for relaying temporal trends. For any desired area (represented by a spatial polygon) we can generate a time series table of the mean sea surface temperature within that area for each day. Additionally, we can compare how observed temperatures correspond with the expected conditions based on a climatology using a specified reference period.

Each of our Climatologies are currently set up to calculate daily averages on a modified year day, such that every March 1st and all days after fall on the same day, regardless of whether it is a leap year or not.
This preserves comparisons across calendar dates such-as: “The average temperature on march 1st is 4.2378197` for the reference period 1982 to 2011”
In these tables Sea Surface Temperature is the mean temperature observed for that date averaged across all cells within the area. Climate Avg. & Climate SD are the climate means and standard deviations for a 1982-2011 climatology. Temperature Anomaly is the daily observed sea surface temperature minus the climate mean.
Regional warming trends below were calculated using all the available data for complete years beginning with 1982 through the end of 2020. The overlaid trend lines then track how warming has increased with time. A dotted line has been included to show how the global average temperature has changed during the same period.

For the figures below heatwave events were determined using the methods of Hobday et al. 2016 and implemented using the R package {heatwaveR}.
A marine heatwave is defined as a situation when seawater temperatures exceeds a seasonally-varying threshold (usually the 90th percentile) for at least 5 consecutive days. Successive heatwaves with gaps of 2 days or less are considered part of the same event. The heatwave threshold used below was 90%. The heatwave history for Gulf Of Maine is displayed below:
# Use function to process heatwave data for plotting
region_heatwaves <- pull_heatwave_events(region_timeseries, threshold = 90)

If we look at the rates of change for each grid cell, rather than the observed temperature, its possible to rank how hot each location on earth is warming relative to others.
If we take the average ranking within the Gulf of Maine we can obtain the average warming rank for the area compared to the rest of the globe.

Based on data from 1982-2020, the warming rates of Gulf Of Maine have been some of the highest in the world. The area as a whole has been increasing at a rate of 0.041\(^{\circ}C/year\) which is faster than 94.3% of the world’s oceans.
Over that same period locations within the Gulf Of Maine have been warming at rates as low as 0.014\(^{\circ}C/year\) and as rapidly as 0.088\(^{\circ}C/year\), corresponding to ranks as low as 50.8% and as high as greater than or equal to 99.5%.
Mapped below are the corresponding warming rates and their global rankings.

In 2021 NOAA is transitioning standard climatologies from the 30-year period of 1982-2011 to a new period spanning 1992-2020. Changes in climate regimes often does not reult in a uniform upward or downward change that is consistent throughout the year. The plot below shows just how both the average temperature, as well as the annual highs and lows have shifted.
When looking specifically at Gulf Of Maine here is how the expected temperature for each day of the year has shifted:
# Run heatwave detection using new climate period
heatwaves_91 <- pull_heatwave_events(region_timeseries,
threshold = 90,
clim_ref_period = c("1991-01-01", "2020-12-31"))
# Subtract old from the new
heatwaves_91 <- heatwaves_91 %>%
mutate(clim_shift = seas - region_heatwaves$seas,
upper_shift = mhw_thresh - region_heatwaves$mhw_thresh,
lower_shift = mcs_thresh - region_heatwaves$mcs_thresh)
# Plot the differences
heatwaves_91 %>%
